Kanye West doesn’t take well to challenges, that we know. He’s a guy prone to go on long rants to address even small issues, so when his integrity is at stake you can bet he would have a lot to say.
So when Kid Cudi sent out some tweets Wednesday accusing rappers like Kanye and Drake of employing ghost writers in their work, it didn’t take either long to respond.
Performing in Tampa, Florida, Kanye unleashed a stream of consciousness on Cudi, who used to be signed to his G.O.O.D Music label.
Kid Cudi, don’t ever mention ‘Ye name. I birthed you. We all dealing with that emo shit all the time — me, Pat, Don C. Don’t ever mention ‘Ye name. Don’t try to say who I can do songs with. You mad ’cause I’m doing songs with Drake? Ain’t nobody telling ‘Ye who to do songs with! Respect the God!
You know how many people wish they could be signed to G.O.O.D. Music, get they life changed? Have that opportunity? Never forget that. I’m so hurt. I feel so disrespected. Kid Cudi, we’re two black men in a racist world. I wore skinny jeans first. I got called names before you, bruh. Why y’all got to come at me? This ain’t the end of the Malcolm X movie. I’m out here fighting for y’all: creatives, artists, independent thinkers. Don’t never mention my name in a bad manner. None of y’all!”
Kid Cudi had earlier ragged on Drake and Ye in twitter rants, claiming they felt threatened by him and calling them out for using ghostwriters.
